Experimental porphyria produced by chlorinated hydrocarbons. Studies on porphyrinogen carboxylase in the experiment model of human porphyria cutanea tarda

The present work tries to elucidate if the strong decrease of porphyrinogen carboxylase (PCL) observed in experimental porphyria caused by hexachlorobenzene (HCB) is due to the presence of an inhibitor or to a modification of the protein structure of the enzyme. For this purpose: a) cross-assays and...
